Trophos

Trophos was the nanny of the Colchian princess Medea. In 1290 BC, she narrated the story of Medea's life, wishing that Jason and the Argonauts had never arrived in Colchis and started the process that would lead to Medea's sailing to the fortress of Iolcus' land, her convincing of Pelias' daughters to kill their father, and her murder of Jason's children Tisander and Alcimenes, his wife Glauce, and his father-in-law Creon of Corinth. She believed that a woman not challenging her husband brought the greatest stability at home, and she shared her sorrow with Paidagogos, the children's tutor.
